With it's elegant black cabinet and sleek stainless steel door, the Kegco K309SS-2 2 Faucet Digital Kegerator is a beautiful freestanding beer dispenser that also makes a great kombucha dispenser! This K309SS-2 keg refrigerator has all the features you've come to appreciate from other high quality Kegco models, such as attractive styling, a removable built-in drip tray that is easy to clean, a chrome guardrail that prevents glasses from sliding off the top, easy rolling casters and a complete direct draw system for dispensing two kegs at a time. Digital temperature controls let you see your specific temperature setting and set it easily with the push of a button, as well as giving you a wider available temperature range for more precise temperature control.
Digital Temperature Control: It's digital temperature display and push button control make it easier than ever to set and verify the internal temperature of this beer cooler. Instead of having to guess what temperature a number on a dial will produce, you simply need to press the up or down button to adjust the temperature by one degree. The display can be set to either Fahrenheit or Celsius.
Fan-Forced Cooling for Super Cool Temperatures: Kegco K309SS-2 Kegerators have one of the coldest temperature ranges of any keg dispenser on the market today thanks to fan-forced cooling, which provides even cooling throughout the unit. To dispense ice cold beer the temperature can be set as low as 32 degrees.
Large Interior: This beer refrigerator has a spacious interior that is large enough to easily hold any full size keg, including Miller kegs, Coors Kegs and rubber kegs. It can also hold up to two 5 Gallon D System kegs or up to three 5 Gallon Cornelius Ball Lock Home Brew kegs, which gives you the option to dispense more than one beer at a time.
Deep Chill Function: This unit has a Deep Chill function that allows you to quickly cool down a warm keg by forcing the compressor to work continuously for 24 hours. When your keg has reached the desired temperature, press Deep Chill again to return to normal operation.
Converts to a Refrigerator with 2 Shelves: When you're not using this unit as a keg cooler, it can be easily converted into a refrigerator for extra storage. The two included adjustable shelves can be spaced far enough apart to hold 2-liter bottles or gallon jugs, and with the wide temperature range available in these Beer Dispensers, you can even use them to store wine!
Locking Casters Provide Mobility: Easy-Roll Casters allow you to easily move these Kegco K309SS-2 Keg Refrigerators from the kitchen to the patio for your backyard barbeque! Once you have your kegerator where you want it, the casters can be locked so that it won't roll again until you want it to.
These Kegco Beer Refrigerators include all of the draft beer dispense equipment you'll need to pour a cold, tasty glass of beer. Beverage Factory gives you the option to choose the keg couplers you want, which allows you to receive a custom setup for the type of kegs you'll be dispensing! The draft beer system includes a CO2 Tank, Regulator, Keg Couplers, air and beer lines, and all the fittings necessary to assemble the kit. Take a look at more available options below to truly customize your setup.

Product Reviews

Having recently gotten back into homebrew, getting this kegerator was the next step. I have the 3 faucet tap. First, this came well packed on a small wooden palette and boxed up. Unpacking was easy. Putting castors on was a cinch too. The Perlick 650ss with flow control are very nice. The brushed ss tower looks very nice and doesn't show any fingerprints. I added a tower fan and that is about the only noise I hear. No pops or anything like other brands have. It is very well built, I especially like the steel plate on the floor. Time will tell on how it holds up to the damp environment. As I said in another review, the gas tubing is a bit soft for my needs as I like worm gear tube clamps and mfl adapters, which didn't give a good seal. I would have paid for an upgrade to this, but I replaced it with the 3rd party brand at minimal cost, so all's well. Right now I have homebrew keg and a sankey with Highland Gaelic Ale. 3 batches in carboys now, so will add a third. Love that option. So far, absolutely no regrets on this purchase.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

I liked it so much, I bought 2 more

You probably can't beat this kegerator for home use. I bought one 3 years ago, then another 2 years ago, and just got one this year. No problems with them at all. I like having the digital temperature gauge. No guessing what you have the kegerator set at. Multiple options for serving is awesome. I've put full size kegs in them, and sometimes run 2 sixth barrels in each.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Good product. Works as advertised

by:

Ed (08-01-2017)St Helens, OR

Comments:

I will start that I simply don't like to give 5 star reviews, but this kegerator comes as close to deserving one as anything I have ever purchased.

I have the K309B-2 Dual Tap unit. I have the upgraded stainless tower and commercial pro dual gauge regulator while the rest of the components are stock.

PROS:

Very easy to set up and assemble. I had mine up and running within minutes (after unpacking and inspecting that is).

Temperature control is stable and truly is "set it and forget it.". Mine is set up in the garage where temps vary from high 50's at night to low 90's during the day, and I have no temp variation issues.

Fairly quiet operation, but I may not want it in my bedroom.

Sturdy build (mostly. More on that later).

Lots of room inside. This EASILY fits the 5lb CO2 bottle, large dual gauge regulator, Two 1/6 barrel kegs, and the associated lines with room to spare.

CONS:

While this is arguably the best kegerator out there for the money, and I would argue in favor of that point, in order to really make this unit shine you need to spend a little more. A number of reviews I read during my research phase complained about the stock/included faucets sticking, and mine were no different. Within the first day of use one of mine stuck, though I eventually worked it free, and after the first keg went through that side it is now jammed and nonfunctional. Just assume, or even do it when you purchase it, that you will end up upgrading the faucets sooner than later. I will be ordering Perlicks very soon.

The unit itself is fairly sturdy and well constructed. There is some "wobble/flexing" of the tower and it would have been nice to have a little more solid foundation to mount the tower to, but it does sit securely and while not truly a CON, it is worth noting so that you won't be surprised.

I had a couple of small issues on the CO2 side, one with the connection between the tank valve and the regulator, which was blowing by at a very fast rate. This was solved by simply removing the regulator and rotating the bushing and re-installing. Also, the regulator feels "crunchy" when turning the handle and experience tells me that this isn't a good thing for regulators to feel like, but I am not sure if this is an actual issue or not. After the initial setting/adjusting of the pressure I did have a situation where the next morning my pressure had creeped back to 0-1psi and I had to increase it again. That said it has been holding right at 9-10psi like champ since then.

Overall I would highly recommend this to anyone out there looking for a home kegerator in spite of some of the smaller things I pointed out. I did quite a bit of research and turned up a number of issues and complaints about foaming, needing to add additional insulation, tower cooling, etc. None of that was a problem for me and it was literally about as plug and play as you can get. Beer pours VERY COLD (I keep mine at 36F) and little or no waste from running foam from the lines before you can make a good pour. Well worth the money.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Great Setup!!!!

Worth every penny. Quality Refer unit and Tap components. Pours beautifully. I upgraded my regulator, tap, tower and coupler one level and only paid the price difference. My only mistake was going with a single tap unit... now I want a double!

Works well, good overall design

Comments:

First let me say that the customer service at the Beverage Factory does a good job. I was immediately transferred to the technical department who understood my problem and shipped a replacement part. I had a problem with one component and they promptly send a replacement to me without requiring the defective part be returned first, good customer service. The Kegco works well and seems to be a well constructed piece of equipment. I would give it a 5 star rating but it is not set up well on the 2 tap system for an external tank and a dual pressure gauge. You have to put everything inside the kegerator instead of outside, a relatively minor issue. I also with the hole in the back of the unit was a little larger to handle both the hose and a wire for a tower cooler but that is a another small issue. Overall a great product and great customer service. I will go to them for all my future purchases.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

The Kegco KC K309B-2 is my third kegerator. And, so far at least, is by far the best one I've owned. The last one was a much inferior brand - a brand no longer carried by the Beverage Factory - and it lasted only 4 years. The Kegco is much better built from top to bottom, and I love the digital temperature control and forced fan cooling. It's size is very adequate to accommodate my 1/4 and 1/6th kegs at the same time. The folks at the Beverage Factory are very helpful, very nice, and seem very knowledgeable about their products. I highly recommend them AND this kegerator.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Good Quality

by:

OP (01-23-2017)Boerne, TX

Comments:

I have only my first keg in it so far, a full size half barrel. It fits very well with plenty of room for the CO2 bottle and dual gauge regulator. Temperature display shows only set temperature, not actural temperature, but using my own digital thermmeters, the diaplay temp is always between the temp at the bottom and the top of the keg. Minimum temp at the bottom can be 1.5 deg C lower than set, but never higher. Fine by me!

Overall quality of all of the optional components are first rate. This is my 2nd kegerator, this one a better quality than my last one (different brand).

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Comments:

Beverage Factory was easy to work with, communicated quite well, and ensured I was pleased with the product. My first unit had a strange "knocking" noise emanating from it although it worked fine. BF shipped me a new unit immediately and picked up the old unit. The kegerator itself works great, the digital controls are a nice feature, although I would prefer that it displayed actual temp in the unit rather than just the set point temp. After reading someone else's review I added a tower cooler that is great. I would have liked to have seen the tower cooler on the option list when purchasing the kegerator in the first place. I would recommend stepping up to the Perlick faucets and the premium gauges. You will not be disappointed!

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Great product and service from Beverage Factory. Arrived damage free and on time. Setup was fairly easy except finding the perfect CO2 level takes a few adjustments. Upgraded to the Perlick SS dual tap tower and added a tower cooler to reduce foam. Very accurate temperature- set digital display at 33F and instant read thermometer states 34F. Will definitely recommend to my beer snob friends.

Got this as a birthday gift and it works great! The people at Beverage Factory are more then helpful. Mine arrived with damage to the wire cage in the back, sent them pictures of the damage sent out new part and gave me $50 credit. I would definitely buy from these guys again. The only problem I had was finding a place to fill the co2 tank,I also recommend getting the duel gauge regulator.

I have had a keezer for a few years and due to the inconsistent temperatures, I decided to buy a true kegerator. I did a lot of research and I knew I wanted a full sized CO2 tank and enough space for 3-kegs. I home brew. This unit was very easy to put together because I knew the workings of my keezer. This unit is SOLID! I was so glad I went with the Kegco brand. Per my research, they tend to last much longer than their competitors.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Does a great job

The 309SS-2 performs as advertised. It keeps the beer cold and the thing I most like is it is extremely quiet. Our Keg Fridge is in our open kitchen/great room area and you can barely hear it when it kicks on. We live in a gorgeous newly built house and it blends in nicely with my wife's kitchen. It did have a faucet leak when I set it up by the Beverage warehouse when called quickly gave me the fix for it.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Awesome Kererator for the money

Phil (06-28-2016)Homer, MI.

Purchased this model one year ago and couldn't be happier. Upgraded to the polished SS tower w/the Perlick valve, and dual regulator. This has been a remarkable upgrade to my previous Visani kegerator(a piece of junk BTW). Unit is extremely quiet. I only wish that the Beverage Factory offered a stainless steel drip tray as an option. Other than that, a perfect piece of equipment. I'm a happy camper.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Great Kegerator

by:

Adam (04-23-2016)Des Moines, IA

Comments:

I spent a ton of time researching kegerators and just couldn't justify spending up to $1400 or more on a commercial unit. I bought this one and upgraded to the SS Tower with Perlick faucets and purchased a tower cooler.

The highlights for this unit over others is as follows:
1. the size is able to easily fit oversized kegs. I have also succeeded in putting two 1/4 kegs in mine. I know the official description says that you can't but I have succeeded and the door is shut completely.
2. Circulating fan inside. Yeah, you can buy a cheaper kegerator and make this mod yourself but this one is done for you and worth the money.
3. Quiet operation. This thing is actually in my living room and the noise is not an issue at all. It is quieter and cycles less than my kitchen fridge.
4. Digital temperature adjustment. You don't need to open the door to adjust temperature. This isn't a huge deal but trust me, if you want to change temps in a cheaper kegerator and you've already got the kegs inside and tapped, it's a pain to adjust. I personally found it worth the money to upgrade to this unit for that feature.
5. Deep chill function. This is great for getting a big keg down to temperature quickly and shows me that they must trust the compressor to handle that load.
6. The Beverage Factory did an excellent job of getting this unit shipped to me and there were absolutely no issues. Their customer service is top notch. I had an issue with the original tower cooler that was sent but they took care of it immediately. I am very happy that I purchased from this company and I'm not a paid shrill.

Recommendations are to upgrade to the SS Tower with Perlick faucets and purchase a tower cooler. The tower cooler will cut down on foamy beers. One of the downfalls of this style of kegerator is the lack of cooling to the tower. I don't necessarily recommend the tower cooler sold by Beverage Factory but I did purchase it and it is working fine. The perlick faucets are classy and don't gum up, trust me on this one, they are worth the money. You might also invest in a lo-boy perlick coupler to allow a little more room if you're going to try to sandwich two 1/4 barrels into this bad boy, but it isn't necessary.

Overall, this is the best kegerator for the money. Yeah, a commercial unit would be nicer but again, you're going to start around $1400 and by the time you outfit it with couplers, regulators, lines, faucets, etc... You'll probably be closer to 1600 and you can get this thing upgraded and shipped for probably closer to $800.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Excellent product-very pleased

by:

Hank (03-22-2016)Reading, PA

Comments:

I bought this to replace a 25 plus year old kegerator that I had. The old one made tons of noise, was always running, knocking, and ate electricity.

Upon receiving the new one I did a thorough inspection and was happy to find the unit in perfect condition. I know people who have ordered from other stores and had horror stories about damage and customer service.

Set up took me about 1 hour and 20 minutes. That time included disconnecting the old one swapping the old coupler, faucet, and tank that I was keeping and moving it out of the house.

Currently I have the temp set at 36F and the cheap thermometer that I bought is reading 32 inside so I am perfectly happy. I upgraded to the dual gauge premium and and am very happy with it compared to the previous piece of junk that I had.

If you are like me you are researching kegerators until your brain hurts and leery of picking one. Take the plunge and purchase this model and you will be very happy.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

This us an awesome kegerator for the money (I got it on sale here). The digital temp control is perfect. No more guessing what setting will work for what temp I need. Just set the temp you want your beer to be and that is it. It is always displayed in blue neon on the front panel. This is attractive and matches the other stainless appliances in the kitchen so the wife is happy too! Very functional and holds my home brew kegs and C02 tank inside with no problem. It also has a fast cool down function and a great built in fan which circulates the cold air perfectly. I am very happy with this kegerator and can recommend this one!

I would recommend this product.

This is the first time rating a product online, so please forgive the wordiness.
I spent weeks scouring the Internet, talking to friends and others seeking advice for purchasing my first kegerator. I was a little intimidated at first because I wanted to make sure I purchased a good product.
Two weeks later, I am happy to say that I could not be happier with my purchase. It was easy to assemble as in about 30 minutes I had a nice draft pouring from one of the taps. I upgraded to a dual regulator and Perlick tap handle after reading several recommendations online. It was well worth the couple extra bucks.
I was also happy with the service I received from the company as I had a question about the delivery date. They were courteous on the phone and sent me an email with additional information.

Awesome Keg Fridge!

by:

HeatherC (02-11-2016)Los Angeles, CA

Comments:

I purchased this keg fridge for my husband four months ago (because I'm an amazing wife). I wanted to wait to see how it functioned before reviewing. My husband couldn't be happier! It's perfect for home brewing and it's worked beautifully! Based on other reviews, I upgraded to the dual stainless steel faucet tower with perlick (excellent choice), and the premium dual gauge regulator (not-so-excellent choice).

PROS:

He loves the digital temperature control, the external CO2 tank option, the wheels on the bottom of the fridge for moving, the internal fan, and the beer tray. So, pretty much everything is awesome.

CONS:

His only complaint is the dual gauge regulator. He couldn't adapt it to the keg fridge for the external CO2 tank since it was fastened so tight. He couldn't take it apart without damaging it. We had to purchase a different regulator and adapt it instead.

Overall, a fantastic purchase! The fridge works amazing. It looks sleek and performs beautifully. It's also super quiet. He loves it!

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Like most on here I spent countless hours researching kegerators. Luckily, I found this website from a review on Amazon. This kegerator is awesome! if the digital readout says 33 degrees then the beer temp will be that. The only thing I changed was the perlick faucet upgrade with stainless steel tower. I built my own tower cooler which sorry to say is a necessity if you don't want your first pour to be half foam. I keep my Co2 at about 3 PSI and that seems to be the perfect pour. I got a wooden tap handle from Amazon with interchangeable labels for $20 and its the perfect addition to this awesome kegerator.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Great kegerator, noise problem fixed

by:

John (01-14-2016)York PA

Comments:

First off this is my second kegerator from beverage factory. My first one was a Danby and it was great over 10yrs before it died. The ordering process was great. The shipping was great fast and the truck driver was professional and very helpful. kegco packs there kegerator with overkill to prevent damage. Now it has only been a few days since i have been using it and its everything as described. Now there was one thing and it was the noise! When i plugged it in the kegerator made an annoying noise that most reviews have mentioned and instructions say is normal? The problem is the fan inside. open the door and you can here it coming from the fan. To fix there are 2 white caps on the fan,take a small screw driver or tip of a knife and pop them out. Then take a phillips screw driver and while the unit is on and the fan is running turn the top screw 2 times to the left to loosen the screw and same for bottom screw. Keep doing this and the noise will stop. The problem is when they built the kegerator they over tighten the screws on the fan cover. So when the fan is on it was hitting the plastic cover slightly. That is the awful noise. After you back out the screws the kegerator is super quiet!! I will update this review in a few months to see if its continuing to perform? I hope this review was helpful. The only bad thing was this unit went on sale the next day and I paid $35 more :(

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

This unit is incredible. I've had it for a year and a half, no problems except one of the faucet attachments is a little loose. Tried a few times to go down into the top of faucet stem to tighten it, but haven't been able to get down there. It really doesn't pose a problem, it just bugs me. I clean the lines after each keg. It will fit one commercial 1/6 barrel and 2 homebrew kegs. Easy to put together. Go on, treat yourself.

Nice Kegerator

by:

gspang123 (11-05-2015)Philadelphia, PA

Comments:

This kegerator seems quite nice and was exactly as described. The interior quite large so it can fit any type of keg and up to 3 sixtels or home brew kegs at once. I upgraded a number of the parts including the tower and faucets to perlick stainless steel options and they look great although I haven't had an opportunity to try them yet as I just had this item delivered last week and installed it over the weekend. I left several inches around it for ventilation but installed it under a counter and it fits in very well with only around 2 inches between the top of the unit and the bottom of the counter top. I look forward to getting a keg in there in the next week or two to really try it out.

The one thing that I don't like about the kegerator is the lack of space to run multiple gas lines into the unit if you want to hook up an external tank. It has a spot for one line but since this unit can support up to 3 products at once it should have additional options for running the gas. I don't want to waste space inside the unit and have a nice location in a cabinet beside the kegerator to keep and monitor my gas tanks (I'll be keeping one extra on hand to ensure I always have gas, just like I do with propane for my gas grill) and it requires running one of the lines through the top of the unit with the beer lines. It looks like this should not prove to be an issue but it would have been nice to have an additional or at least a larger hole to run multiple gas lines through.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Love This Unit

by:

The Wee Irishman (09-22-2015)Cleveland, OH

Comments:

I love this kegerator...it's the first that I've owned personally, but I've operated a friend's for several years now :-). He has a commercial grade unit that operated very nicely, but this does every bit of the job a much more expensive unit would do.

First, I loved my experience dealing with Beverage Factory. I ordered the unit, it shipped out, was delivered well ahead of the original estimated delivery date from the shipping company. I had inside of a week from San Diego to Cleveland, OH. Everything was packaged neatly, all of the pieces were easy to find, and everything was securely wrapped in a way that would minimize the possibility of damage in transit. Mine showed up in perfect condition.

Assembly was a breeze. I had the unit assembled and hooked up in about an hour. NOTE: If you order one of these units, I highly recommend downloading the instructions and assembly manual that Beverage Factory makes available on the site ahead of your unit arriving. By reviewing the steps for assembly and the proper procedure for attaching the couplers to the kegs (to minimize pressure creep) I was ready to go when the unit arrived with no surprises and no reading/re-re-reading when it was time to drink! I just needed CO2 and beer.

As for the unit itself, it got right to temperature with no problems at all, and the temperature holds with little to no fluctuations. I'm so glad that I went with the digital unit because, between the "deep chill" function and the ability to easily adjust the temperature from the front of the unit, keeping beer cold and pouring smoothly is a breeze. Another important thing that I noticed on this unit is that the tower stays relatively cold, and comes nicely insulated with what appears to be plumber's insulation around the faucets and lines, and then a styrofoam cap at the top, just under the main cap. I bought several upgrades, including dual faucets, stainless tower, and Perlick taps. (The Perlick is a definite MUST on the upgrade list if you want complete and total shut off with no drips). When I first hooked hooked up my two kegs (Sam Adams--a rather finicky beer with regard to foam--beer sites are full of people who can't get Sam right, and Stone IPA) I adjusted the pressure to 8 psi, and after and initial cooling period and burping of the lines, this unit runs great ALMOST from the very first flick of the tap. I say "almost" because I still needed to run the tap for about a second to purge the warmer beer (I just chug it), but then the beer that comes out is smooth, foam-free, but producing just the right amount of head. I've since added a tower cooler from a third party manufacturer, and that has made a difference. I think with some less finicky beers in there and a tweak to the pressure, I might well get it going from the very beginning. I did NOT upgrade to the Perlick low-profile couplers, and I have plenty of room at the top for everything. In fact, I currently have 2 sixth-barrel kegs, a 5 lb. CO2 canister, a tower cool and a 6-pack of bottled beer in there (the 6 pack is there because it's super cold and just because it's a beer I love but cannot find in a keg).

The CO2 regulator that comes with the unit is actually very nice. It has quick shut off valves that come in handy on a number of levels. But more importantly, the valve holds pressure with minimal "creeping up" of the pressure, providing that the kegs are properly introduced to the system. It responds immediately upon increasing the pressure, however a decrease in pressure is a much slower process and seems to take longer than I want to respond--I normally don't like to keep the door open that long, so I adjust it to where I think it needs to be and check a couple of hours later. Usually I get it to where I want it, but my friend who runs the higher end kegerator uses a much older regulator that responds both ways, immediately.

All in all, this is a great unit and I high recommend it. I've had it running for about 2 and a half weeks now and everything is going great and the unit is performing superbly.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Great product, should have bought first

I wanted to start kegging my home brew, and I was initially set to buy this exact model, but a sales guy at my local home brew store initially talked me out of it, and recommended going the home build route. Well, I did that, and a month later I bought this. Although the home route worked, I had issues keeping the door sealed after having to remove all the plastic shelves, and then to my dismay, I had enough vertical space for a sixtel keg and my homebrew keg, but the sixtel is just enough larger that I couldn't fit two kegs in my kegerator. I had been very careful about which fridge I bought based on the need for two kegs. Well, I learned my lesson, and the Kegco kegerator was in my living room a few short weeks later. It fits my homebrew keg, my sixtel of Sam Adam's Oktoberfest, and a six pack to boot.

This kegerator is very well done. The recirculating keeps the air moving, and the tower cold, so when the beer dispenses, I'm not getting all foam. I had to buy a fan with a hose for my old kegerator to keep it chilled, and it was sort of loud. Silence with the Kegco. The mounting bracket keeps my CO2 tank in place on the inside, as well as the option to put it on the back. The digital thermostat keeps the temperature spot on, without the need for an external temperature controller, that I had on my old kegerator. With all the add ons I had to do with my old kegerator, I believe I would have saved money on the Kegco, had I bought it to begin with.

My only complaint is that I wish there was an option for a stainless drip tray. If the tray could be swapped out (which, I'm sure Kegco could make available), I'd be giving it 5 stars all day long. Right now, It's about a 4 3/4 stars.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

One Keg or Two?

Cornhusker (08-26-2015)Omaha, NE

Comments:

I have contemplated getting a kegerator for quite a while. I was initially planning on buying one from a big box store but after some research decided I wanted the flexibility of having two faucets. It arrived sooner than expected and was delivered right to my garage. I was able to assemble it in about an hour with no problems. I bought ½ barrel keg for a large gatherings and even in an un-air-conditioned garage the inside of the cabinet was an icy 32°.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Great kegerator, easy to assemble

by:

IceDog (08-26-2015)Manchester, NH

I purchased the Kegco K309SS-3 kegerator so I could use it for my home brew and commercial beer. I had been using a converted refrigerator/kegerator for 5+ years and this is an excellent upgrade. I have had this since May 2015 and waited before writing the review until I had some time using it. The ordering process was simple and it’s worth noting that it’s shipped by a trucking company not UPS/FedEx. It was shipped on a pallet and moved easily through my doorways on a dolly. It arrived with no damage. I let it sit overnight before starting assembly.

It was easy to assemble and I had a Cornelius keg ready to go from my now old kegerator. So within a couple of hours I was drinking out of this new kegerator. What might have made it easy for me to build was having converted a fridge to one before, and having read the instructions while I was waiting for it in transit. A few weeks later I bought a 1/4 slim keg and put it in with the Cornelius keg, and they fit just fine.

It’s in my basement and looks nice, and runs quiet. The controls are nice and easy to use. When filling a growler I spilled into the drip tray. The drip tray and the top of the kegerator are easy to clean. If not used for a few days the tap does stick a little, causing you to either drink more frequently or just work a little harder for the first beer. I am impressed with this and would recommend it for any home brewer or beer fan.

New addition to the family, easy delivery and set up process. Received product in the morning and had cold beer in the afternoon!! Everything was exactly the way it was supposed to be. My friend has the same unit and we are both very pleased. Based on other reviews I upgraded to stainless steel faucets, and can't imagine why I wouldn't have. Shouldn't even sell the product another way. It would just cheapen it. Love it!!! Looking for custom pulls now.

My Kegerator arrived 3days sooner than expected which was a NICE TREAT. I use it for a couple beers in the evening or to supply the masses when friends are over. Works great. VERY EASY to assemble and put into operation. Had a bit of foaming problem but when I looked in instructions again it said keeping beer to cold can cause this problem. Raised temp from 32 degrees to 34 degrees and am now pouring PERFECT BEERS. I really don't have much bad to say about it except the compressor may be just a bit louder than I expected but certainly not loud enough to make this a negative in my purchase of the unit.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

nice kegerator

by:

thumpersk_a (07-17-2015)gillette WY

Comments:

Great kegerator nice quality. The reason I gave it 4 stars is I ordered a 2 faucet setup with the upgraded regulator and mount the tank outside, well there is only one hole in the kegerator for co2. The second hole had to be drilled and the kegerator should come with the second hole and trim piece for the amount i paid. No I don't want a wye fitting inside I want the option to dispense at 2 different pressures with the tank outside.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Beverage Factory is A++++

Can't tell you how happy I am with their service.
Had an old Sanyo that took a dump one evening and phoned them up in the morning. They are totally helpful, and the fella I spoke to said he would get the order rolling immediately. Well, that he did. I had my new Kegco in THREE days.
I was totally impressed.
The unit is good looking and it does get cold, real cold. Mine is in my garage in CA where it averages about 85 to 90 outside and this bad boy keeps my beer @ 35 degs. Had it on the deep chill cycle and it got down to 28 degs. and froze the beer in the line. Got the extra stainless tower with Perrlick tap and my beer flows like honey.
Keep up the good work Beverage Factory...

I would recommend this product.

Never leaving my house again

Zach (06-12-2015)Charlotte

Comments:

This thing is sweeeet. Delivery took slightly longer than anticipated (from California to NC, so I'll give them a pass), but the kegerator arrived undamaged to my threshold.

I was getting too much head on my first few kegs, especially on the first pour of the day. After multiple attempts at adjusting pressure, I purchased a small tower chiller (~$40) that I turn on a few hours before I know I want to pour. Works perfectly. Essentially it's just a small fan with a hose that blows air from the fridge into the tower. Tower is almost sweating it's so cold. Now my pours average less than 1/4" of foam on top - first pour and every pour after.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Very happy so far

by:

Paul (06-10-2015)Rochester, NY

Comments:

After reading the reviews here I decided to purchase this unit. Delivery went well, except that the delivery driver wouldn't stay until I had checked everything over for damage (even though the Beverage Factory instructions were very clear that the driver was required to do so). Luckily no damage was found and so I started putting everything together.

I had decided to upgrade to the Perlick 650SS faucets with flow control, and to my dismay once I installed them on the tower it was clear that there was very little room available to adjust the flow control because the 3 faucets were crammed so close together. I decided not to struggle with it and instead called Beverage Factory to arrange return of the tower that comes with this unit in exchange for the T-style tower (item TTOW-3F-SS). I figured the design of the T-style tower would work better with the 650SS faucets, and I was right. I still wish the faucets were placed about an inch further apart from one another on the TTOW-3F-SS, because that would allow more room for wider tap handles. There's certainly plenty of space available to have done this, so I'm not sure why the manufacturer didn't make better use of that space? But I can live with it as-is.

One other downside to the T-style tower is that it's not insulated at all. The tower that comes with this unit had thick felt insulation inside, so I'm not sure how that was overlooked on the T-style tower? I may need to carve out some styrofoam blocks and use them to fill the empty space in the TTOW-3F-SS, or maybe stuff some felt padding in there to provide the missing insulation.

Other than that, this kegerator runs very quietly, so much so that I sometimes have to check to see if it's still running! I put it in our dining room so that it wouldn't both us if it became noisy, but it's been very quiet so far. After 6 months everything still works great. And I love the digital controls that tell me the settings at a glance!

Only other points to mention are that the included hose clamps are cheap plastic; do yourself a favor and get a set of stainless steel earless clamps, to more securely attach your hoses to the keg connectors and your regulator. Also, the chill plate on the back wall of this kegerator gets very cold, so keep your beer lines away from it or else they'll freeze solid! One of mine did just that, and I couldn't figure out why nothing was dispensing!

All in all I'd say this is a well-made appliance and customer service was very good about handling my tower exchange. Recommended!

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Staff Reply:

Hello Paul, thank you for your response and we are really glad to hear you have a had a good experience. Excellent choice in regards to the Perlick faucets and you are correct about the triple faucet tower not having enough space for that particular faucet. In reference to the insulating of the T-style tower I would use plumbers insulation inside that tower. Much thicker. Thanks again and we look forward to hearing from you in the future.

Liked it so much I bought another.

Allen (06-04-2015)Birmingham

Comments:

After several weeks of research and shopping I bought the K309SS-2 as a birthday present to myself over a year ago. I usually keep a slim quarter keg of commercial beer and a ball lock keg of homebrew in it. I'm very pleased with the amount of space, its ability to hold the correct temperature, the quality of manufacture, how quiet it is...the list goes on.

When I decided that I would like to start brewing more and needed a few more taps I considered cheaper alternatives since I already had such a nice kegerator in the 309, but I realized I wouldn't be happy with anything else after using this one. Today I finally pulled the trigger on a second. This time I got the K309SS-3 so I could keep an additional 3 ball lock kegs of homebrew on tap.

I recommend upgrading to Perlick faucets right off the bat. On my first 309 I ended up replacing the stock 5 foot beer lines with 12 foot lines. I ordered 36' of 3/16th beer line when I ordered my second 309 so I can go ahead and make that upgrade while the unit is new and dry. The longer beer lines allow you more flexibility with your carbonation level without worrying about foaming. Other than that this beauty is good to go. I can't wait to receive my second.

You know you want it. Do it.

I would recommend this product.

Worth the extra money

Comments:

I hate giving anything 5 stars - just looks like I am over the top. And I did have one issue - the digital temp readout would show E1 when I tried to adjust the temp, the Deep Chill would work fine though. Called and spoke to Arielle who told me it sounded like a control board - shipped me a new one and that did the trick (I volunteered to install it myself). I retain 5 stars because of how great the customer service experience was. Been running 3 months now and here are the pros: Keeps temps to the exact degree - tested with water and a digital thermometer, it is quiet - really, I got the brushed tower with the perlick faucets - it looks great, chiller plate and fan cools down the interior fast, customer support is awesome. The cons - two 1/6 kegs are tight with all the associated hoses, The CO2 tank holder does very little and will not hold the tank at all, the plastic drip tray really does not reflect the awesome quality of this unit. Tips - Get the Perlick faucets - just do it! Order a cleaning kit now - you will anyway. Prosit!

I would recommend this product.

Dave (01-05-2015)Kansas

Great product, serving three beers. Well suited for three corny kegs.

Gas manifold lacks check valves so I used one I already had from my previous fridge. Similarly I already had Perlick's which are a must if you don't drink three type of beer/day, worth the upgrade price.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Excellent Kegerator, a wise purchase.

Jim (12-19-2014)Oro Valley, AZ

I've had my kegerator for a couple of months, and it's great. 3 upgraded Perlick taps, polished SS tower, and dual valve regulator upgrades. Works like a charm. Well build, looks good. Nice touch having removable inset drip tray (although an option to Stainless would have been nice. The only problem (& it's not the manufacturer's fault) is that with 2 beers & a cider on tap, you tend to drink them, & that means that kegs run dry, so you have an empty tap until you brew more. I've solved that problem by having an extra keg all filled & ready to go. Now I can rotate my beers (after rinsing out the beer lines first) for variety. Now I'm in the process of carving my first custom tap handle (expect to have one for each of my brews)!

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

A great machine. Big enough for three home kegs to allow different types of beer to be served. I did a lot of research and believe that this is the best machine for the money. The stanless door is a very low price addition too and adds a lot to the look. Consider upgrading to Perlic faucets they will not stick. Also consider paying a bit more for n upgraded regulator, it's a good investment. I added a pair of low pressure regulators so I can have three kegs all at different pressures. Good to be able to keep higher pressure to carbonate, then drop to pour.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

I've had this kegerator now for several months. I homebrew so it was my first move to kegging after brewing for 4 years. Very happy I went with this model. The digital temp set is great to have, why use a dial that just marks colder and warmer? Being it has such a large temp range I also used it at first when I got it as a fermentation chamber to keep my fermenter (Pumpkin Ale) cool and fermenting at 62 degrees. I swapped out the faucets to Perlick before using them since I didn't want to ever deal with a stuck faucet, they too have been working great. This unit is fairly quiet and has a fan that kicks in occasionally, it doesn't always run. It would be nice if there was a way to set the fan to always running to keep the air circulating but oh well. I haven't cooled my tower but I don't get foamy pours so I'm not going to bother to install a tower cooler. I went with the Taprite three-product secondary regular and it sits inside on its side (vertically) and with three kegs in there it all fits. Anyhow, I highly recommend this kegerator.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

As a homebrewer, I needed a way to keep my kegs cool. For over nine months, I was not content with the results I found in Craigslist for used kegerators at high prices with just one faucet and no accessories. This kegerator has it all, the space for 3 pinlock kegs, a CO2 tank--all the goodies you need. Assembling was easy. Still debating in keeping the CO2 tank inside or out. Cooler the CO2 tank, less pressure. Only thing thats is of verrry minor issue is the digital numbers cannot be dimmed--at night, but thats fine.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Awesome system

Even for the mechanically decline like myself, this was pretty easy to setup. Beverage Factory support staff were extremely helpful as well.

This is my first kegerator, so I might be a little bias since I am still in shock at how convenient it is to have a kegerator in the house, but this thing is great! Everything works as advertised. I have not double checked that the actual temp matches the temp setting, but I have it set at 34 degrees F, and the beer comes out cold with the perfect amount of head everytime! I did notice early on (when it was first cooling off a keg) that there was ice forming in the lines, which clogged the tap. But once the keg got to temp and everything came to an equalibrium, that problem resolved itself.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Spend the extra bucks and get this one! The lines are first qulaity and the hardware is first rate. I had a couple issues with the plastic clamps supplied so you might want metal line clamps to be sure. Works well and does fit three cornelius kegs, barely! I am retro fitting mine with the Perlick faucets that have a "creamer" function. Don't bother with the dual gauge manifold as CO2 is in a liquid state and you won't know when you are getting low on gas until just before it happens.Nice metal floor and the digital controls work fine. Get one!

I would recommend this product.

MUST KNOW INFORMATION!

by:

Disappointed (10-08-2014)South Carolina

Comments:

Just received my new K309SS-2 - I upgraded to the 10lb CO2 Tank. I also upgraded to the Double Guage Regulator.

I purchased this unit with the intention of offering two different types of adult beverages - therefore I wanted independently controlled lines to each keg.

Well, the 10lb CO2 doesn't fit inside, AND it doesn't fit in the bracket that came with it (to install on the back of the unit).

Secondly, in order to use the Double Guage Regulator, the regulator MUST be installed INSIDE the unit. It cannot be installed outside the unit (with the 10lb CO2 tank) because the hole that enters the inside cannot accommodate two CO2 lines!

Bottom line, if you want a 10lb CO2 tank, you can ONLY use one CO2 line to go into the unit(from the outside)!

Very disappointed that the website doesn't clarify those facts during the purchase.

**Support update - they have offered two 5lb tanks instead; very aggressive with a resolution, and I appreciate it!**

***I am in contact with Support***

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Great Product So Far

Matt (09-23-2014)Lacey, WA

Comments:

I decided to buy this kegerator after doing a lot of research on the internet and settled on this one because of the positive reviews it received. The kegerator arrived in about a week and was very easy to put together. I did not have any experience with kegerators before but the instructions, along with research on the internet, made it very easy to assemble from the first screw to tapping/pressurizing the keg. I have had the kegerator for two weeks now and have no complaints. Stays very cold, no foam issues and very quiet. Exellent product so far.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Awesome kegerator

by:

Mleban (09-22-2014)Marietta, GA

Comments:

First - shipping was excellent. Don't underestimate this. I sent back two slightly cheaper kegerators from another company that ships F*dEx. Both got damaged. This one shipped on a pallet and was delivered to my garage door by a local shipping company. Easily worth the cost of shipping.

Second - the unit is quiet, cold and well built. Did I mention quiet? Here's where the few additional bucks really shows. The original, cheaper, kegerator was so noisy that the Mfg. sells an insulation plate that you must buy and install behind the refrigeration plate in the back of the unit. Really?

Third - The built-in fan in the back of the unit distributes are throughout. Plenty of space, even with multiple beer & CO2 lines.

This unit is a winner, especially with the ability to customize so many options.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

I have the 3 tap version and I keep 2 homebrew ball locks & one commercial sixtel on tap. Easy to assemble. Keeps a great steady temp that is exactly the temperature it says it is (I've measured). Fits the 3 kegs and 5 lbs CO2 easily, plenty of room. Love this thing, if you are on the fence...do it. You will not regret this. heavy duty wheels on it to move it if you need. the only thing I would upgrade if I could would be a metal drip tray. Get the Perlick taps as well, you won't be sorry. They eliminate stuck taps by being self sealing.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

It was very easy to put together and I figured most of it out without having to look at the directions, very self explanatory!

The product arrived as scheduled and the delivery driver helped me get it into the house. Unpackaging and assembly only took about 30 minutes which really wasn't bad at all. Once assembled I set the temperature to 36 and went to bed. The next day I picked up the kegs I had on order and filled the CO2 tank at our local welding shop and had my first cold tapped keg beer that evening. I currently have two 1/6 barrel kegs tapped with room to spare in the fridge. The CO2 tank is also on the inside. You should have no concern about fitting two kegs of this size in the K309SS. Overall I am very satisfied.

I absolutely LOVE this kegerator. Setup was easy and all the parts were easily identified even to a novice. The refrigerator itself is nice and reliably cold! We keep ours at 34 and it keeps the glasses we store inside nice and frosty for our delicious Shiner Bach. Yum! The digital thermostat feature is very nice, to. Super easy to adjust. It's pretty quiet, quieter than our little mini-fridge and much colder! I wish we had upgraded our regulator because this one is a bit finiky- we haven't figured out how to keep the CO2 level constant with it. Maybe it's our inexperience, but I'm starting to think we might replace this commercial regulator with a different one. We ordered a Shiner Bach tap handle from ebay and it fit right onto the tap in place of the stock handle and looks super cool!

As long as reliability doesn't become an issue (we've only had it a week), then it was a GREAT investment!

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Just got my Kegco 309SS set up this weekend for a housewarming party. The cabinet looks great, I upgraded to SS Perlick taps and dual gauge regulator, glad I did both.

BF has fantastic customer service. I think I called them about 6 times while setting it up just to make sure I was doing it all right. Some tips for you.

Casters- Might be obvious to some but I didn't want to screw anything up. The front casters pop through a little paper covering over the hole. The rear ones you can see the machined hole in the back.

CO2- Just a reminder, THIS COMES EMPTY. You will need to fill it before you can use it so plan accordingly if you're having a party the day after it arrives! It's not the easiest thing to get on short notice and many places only swap out tanks rather than refill so you probably don't want to give up a brand new tank for a used one. Got my tank filled at a fountain beverage service company for $18.

Regulator - It says hand tighten and 1/8th turn with a wrench but that wasn't creating a seal for me so I called up customer service thinking there was a leak and they told me to tighten it way up so that did the trick. (they were ready to ship me another one on the spot if that didn't work though)

Unexpected Noise Troubleshoot - I waited the 8 hours to let the refrigerant settle as recommended in the manual before turning it on and when I did there was a noise coming from inside that definitely didn't sound good. At first I thought it was the compressor starting to circulate the refrigerant but it didn't stop after about 15 min so I figured that something was up. It ended up being the interior circulation fan. There are two screws that keep it attached to the back of the unit and its really just a computer tower fan circulating the air. The cord was being pressed into the fan causing the noise so I just tucked it into the open areas of the housing and screwed it back on and it is quiet as a mouse now. My cat's water fountain is a lot louder than the Kegerator. So if you hear a noise like something is wrong don't panic, check the fan first.

One of my couplers came with a cracked handle and they're shipping a replacement already so that was also good. I just sent them a picture of the damage and it's on its way

My only small complaint is that when I submitted my order I wasn't notified that the Kegerator was backordered for about a week and a half so that almost threw off my plans. They sent me a notice that the order was received and shipment was pending but I ended up needing to call because I forgot to upgrade my regulator when I submitted the order and that is how I found out. Order to shipment was 16 days.

The shipping company worked out great and actually could have delivered a day sooner than BF had estimated so that was good as well but I had already arranged to be home on the day they told me it would come.

Very happy customer overall. I've already recommended the Kegerator and Beverage Factory to several friends.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Don't get the standard faucets

by:

Sdring (08-25-2014)Placerville,ca

Comments:

If you choose this unit do not get the standard faucets. Both leaked out most of the 1st kegs on the floor when we weren't around. If you don't use the faucet for a day you must shoot water back through them to get them unstuck. I am running an Amber beer and a wheat beer and both stuck. Service dept. is recommending stainless faucets so I have order them.
Unit is great but shouldn't even offer it with standard faucet.

Bottom Line:

I would not recommend this product.

Cold as a mofo

by:

Pablo Diablo (07-23-2014)Houston, TX

Comments:

This thing cranks out the cold. I put a glass of water in there to measure with my thermometer and it froze over while set at 34F. Looks good, cold beer, and good equipment. Negatives: colder than temperature setting (much better than the alternative) and the dual gauge regulator is backwards so the mount is a little awkward (big whoop) - that's all I have to gripe about. I nutted up and got this one vs the more inexpensive ones because of some reviews that others don't get cold enough and I'm very glad I did.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Glad I bought it.

I use it for Rubber coated kegs and it has plenty of room. Cools great and looks good too. I searched around and this one had good reviews and great features. I like the feature that you can add or subtract items to fir your needs. Fast shipping and the delivery driver was great. So far it is a good investment.

Great fridge with poor accessories

Well made

by:

Lawman154 (07-11-2014)York Springs, Pa

Comments:

I bought this because of the reviews and so far am not sorry. It is well made and looks good. Shipping company was great and the put it right in the garage so I could assemble it. Assembly was easy. The reviews on other units had the same complaint, not cooling. You don't have to worry with this one. It cools to 32 degrees and the deep chill setting is handy. I also put a tower cooler in mine and am not sorry. So far I would have to say you won't regret buying this one. The ability to add and delete features is a big plus.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Very nice

Paul (07-10-2014)Leesburg, VA

I got approval from my wife and ordered this as a Father’s Day present. I decided to go with some upgrades such as Perlick stainless steel tower and premium regulator. I already had 5 lb. and 20 lb. CO2 tanks so decided to upgrade the order to the 10 lb. size instead. I ordered on June 5 and live in northern VA. While my order was in transit, I spoke with technical support in regards to drilling a hole in this kegerator to pass an air hose for an external air tank and an AC power wire to a tower fan cooler. I also wanted to know if this would hold a 1/6 barrel and 1/4 slim barrel. He was very helpful in answering several other questions and was pretty confident that it would hold 1/6 + 1/4 slim. He mentioned that drilling a hole in the unit would void the warranty and suggested I break it in first before drilling. They did not having the wiring or coolant schematics as to where it would be best to drill through the unit.

Cons
Shipping company is not the best. Had to call a third party and get passed around for order tracking. I learned that the order arrived to the DC metro shipping company warehouse on Wednesday June 11 which is 45 miles from my home. They informed me that they could not deliver until June 17. It sat in their warehouse for 5 business days and I did not receive until after Father’s day. Called Kegworks and got the standard line about 5-10 days of processing time… Allow a few weeks from order date to home delivery to be safe. Not really Kegworks fault but I did pass on my feedback.

Pros
Knowledgeable and friendly technical support
Got an additional $50 off for Father’s Day
Stays very cool. I bought a tower cooling fan on eBay. It keeps the tower chilled which reduces foam on the initial pour. Running the AC out the front door, corner and it seals fine for now.
Was able to fit 1/4 slim + 1/6 barrels. Easily fits two 1/6 barrels.

I have a ball lock 5 gallon keg on backorder since June 11. I plan to use it for soda and home brew. I also purchased a 1/4 MFL quick disconnect to swap between corny kegs and sankey kegs. Tried the 1/4 MFL on a 1/6 barrel and it’s a very tight squeeze at the top of this kegerator, puts a slight kink in the beer line. I’m ordering a bent tail piece which should fix that problem.

Still contemplating where to drill a hole in this unit to run an external 20 lb nitrous/CO2 mix and the 10 lb tanks along with the tower cooler power wire. I don’t want to hit refrigerant or power lines inside the walls or this unit will be toast. Appears the sides have refrigerant lines in the walls, you can feel the heat in certain areas on the outside. There is a drain on the back above the compressor. Might try drilling a small pilot hole near that area and see if there are any obstructions.

In all, I’m very happy with my purchase. The digital display and controls are very nice. You can easily turn this into a wine cooler when not serving beer.

Enjoy!

I would recommend this product.

Comments:

After a very helpful conversation with the staff, I chose this model, which happened to be on sale. Glad I did, as a buddy saved some money on a cheaper brand and there is no comparison--he really regrets his choice as his just doesn't have all the nice touches and quality this one does and the tech support in setting it up was very helpful for a few quick questions. I love it

the ultimate keggerato

by:

runnindude (06-17-2014)Oly, WA

Comments:

This is an excellent product. If you are a home brewer, this is the one for you. It allows for variety both for your brews and if you choose to get a 1/6th keg. there is a 10$ difference for the digital thermometer keg. Just do yourself a favor and get it. it is worth it and if you are already spending this much money....10 bucks is nothing. It is a tight fit. they give you the c02 splitter, but it is not mounted. I mounted it by getting adhesive velcro from home depot and mounting it to the top side of the fridge. i can move it if i want and it is very secure. having it on locking casters is fantastic too. Everything about it is high quality and i have it out in my garage for now (need a spot inside for it.) perlik faucet upgrades are a good idea if you are going for it. unless you only get a 1/2 barrel keg and drink a lot there is no reason to stop at a one or two faucet kegerator when you can have three options. The great part about this fridge is that it is not so big that it dominates space. I could go on, but by now you have stopped reading this and are already ordering it. cheers!

I would recommend this product.

Big and COLD

by:

Scott (06-09-2014)Charlotte

Comments:

So I have to say that i did A LOT of research prior to making this purchase. I have found it hard to find many other reviews on this unit except for the ones here on bevfactory. However the unit is everything I expected. Fast delivery,easy set-up and best of all.... COLD BEER! I have the unit in a garage where the tempature can go up to 85 degrees and the Kegco works flawlessly. There is a little extra foam on the first pour (as expected without a fan cooled tower) but with the internal cooling fan, this is very minimal compaired to other kegerators that I have used in the past. The interior is big enough to hold a sixtel and 2 cornies with a 5lb co2 tank. All of the parts are of commercial quality (i up graded the regulator) and seem like they will last for a long time. Thanks Beverage Factory for my new best friend!

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Love this kegerator

by:

Monkeybox (06-05-2014)Grand Rapids, MI

Comments:

Ordered mine with the Perlick faucets, outfitted for 2 homebrew cornie kegs and a commercial sixth barrel. It works great.

Only improvement I'd make is that I wish it came with longer beer line so that I could run it at a higher pressure, but I'm doing just fine at 40degrees and about 10psi.

Had a problem with the initial CO2 regulator, but beverage factory made it quick and easy to get a replacement.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Kelsy (06-03-2014)University Place, WA

Comments:

Easy order, delivery.
Arrived in perfect condition. Easy to assemble. Works great. Cools the beer quickly. Does not make any strange popping or cracking sounds like others that I researched before purchase. This was an early Father's Day gift. As homebrewer, husband is thrilled with it and it so much more convenient that using bottles.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

This is the great kegerator!!!

by:

Mac (05-17-2014)Sacramento

Comments:

This was easy to set up, and after a resetting the temp a couple of times it pours great. Make sure you set up a thermometer in the kegerator as I ffound a slight difference between the digital setting and the reality in the kegerator. It is quiet, I have to listen for it to make sure it is working. The recessed drip tray looks sleek compared to the drip trays that just sit on deck. Well thought out and well built. You can get cheaper ones, but you get what you pay for.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Fantastic unit so far!

by:

Eric (05-04-2014)Phoenix, AZ

Comments:

I did a bunch of research before buying. The Haiers and the Danbys of the kegerator world seem to be very cheap. Not affordable, mind you, cheap. As in, not well made. A few people have recommended the Kegco units, and the reviews have all been positive. Well, so far the reviews have been spot on. I ended up purchasing a "scratch and dent" unit. The only issue is a small dent on a side wall, at the very bottom. I'll gladly take that for the $150 off regular price. Other than that dent, it's in prestine shape.

Anyway, the unit arrived a few days early, which was great. it was VERY well packaged. The packaging was in perfect shape as well. They were cautious with packing and shipping, clearly. It took maybe 45 minutes to unpack everything and assemble the few things that needed assembly (faucet tower, casters). The unit is super quiet. Can barely hear it run. I have mine set at 33 degrees, and canned soda has small ice crystals all through it when I pop the tab. perfect. It would probably freeze if I dropped it to 32. The temp adjustment covers the 32-75 degree range. I plan on testing this out at some point, using the fridge as a fermentation chamber to maintain temps when I brew my own.

Overall ,this thing rocks so far. If reliability does not become an issue, it was money very well spent!!

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Love it - great for home brewer

by:

Bryan (04-01-2014)Westfield (Indy), IN

Comments:

I've been a home brewer for a few years and was getting tired of bottling so I finally got into kegging with this unit. I was very impressed with the quality of the unit and the lines beverage factory provided for all the gas and liquid hook ups. I currently only have one keg full but hooked up all 3 kegs to run hot water with PBW through the lines to clean them and then ran sanitizer through all 3 kegs and lines also to prep for eventual home brew flowing through.

The unit is very quiet. We have it next to our bar in the basement and its just a few feet behind our couch and you can barely hear it when the compressor kicks on.

I upgraded to the Polished Stainless Steel Tower with Perlick 630SS Faucets and it is pretty good quality and came with insulation in the tower. I haven't had any issues with foaming or warm beer in the line even when not being used for a couple days.

The only con is that the triple faucets are very close together and it doesn't leave you many options to upgrade the tap handles. I initially ordered the T180-7 - Twist - 7" BOD (Branding On Demand) Tap Handle but had to return them because the handles hit each other at the top. You're limited to probably a 4 or 5 inch pretty straight tap handle. I'm currently just using the cheap plastic ones that come standard. They are fine but I want something a little nicer.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Better Build Quality

by:

Miles (03-31-2014)Bozeman, Montana

Comments:

I tried and returned a kegerator of lesser quality to a different store. I found the Kegco model and paid a little more. Boy, what a difference. This kegerator is much more solid and put together well. The fan sounds great in theory however I found it to be very noisy. Sounds like a weed whacker at times. It was much noisier in the first few days but once the fridge was cooled then the fan doesn't turn on nearly as often. I like the digital controls as I don't have to crawl behind the fridge when I want to adjust the temperature. I would give up the digital for a quieter traditional model however. The stainless steel tower and perlicker tap upgrade were well worth it.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Should've done this sooner

by:

John (03-14-2014)Quinton, VA

Comments:

I had been using a 5 liter kegerator but was dis-satisfied with the poor selection of beers available, so I ordered the K309SS-1. My only regrets are that I should've done this years ago and that I only ordered the single tap (I upgraded to a double tap within a month). Aside from a little compressor noise this thing is perfect and I would recommend it to anyone.

I would recommend this product.

I review products before I buy them. I understand that everyone does this. Nobody does the research that I do. I picked this unit instead of a TRUE Kegerator based on this unit is half price of the commercial units. Beer is ice cold, the unit is quiet, and the components are all high quality. Setup is a breeze and the Beverage Factory is the place to buy. Can't find it cheaper. Very happy with everything.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

GREAT KEGERATOR

by:

Home brewer John C (03-07-2014)Long Island, New York

Comments:

I have 3 of my own brews on tap at any time!! The digital thermostat is right on, I keep it set at 38deg. The fan helps cool everything faster and keeps a steady temp. It is a quiet unit and the stainless matches the other appliances in the kitchen. (Keeps the wife happy). I just wish the co2 tank was on the right side instead of on the left in front of the fan. Or better yet was able to be mounted in the back outside of the unit.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

don (02-25-2014)massachusetts

Comments:

Hopefully I wont jinx myself, but so far this keg cooler is great. I have had a keg cooler in the past and although it worked, it always gave me problems. This cooler worked great from the beginning. Keeps the beer very cold, and no foaming. The one thing that would have been better is if the bottom where the keg sits, if it would slide out for easier install. Great unit. Great delivery time also.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Good price even with shipping. Very well packaged. Fast shipping. Looks like a high quality unit. Was short one hose clamp that I fixed with a trip to Pep Boys. Was surprised to learn that the faucet locks purchased with the unit do not fit the faucets purchased with the unit! I would have thought their sales folks would have either caught the issue or not included the locks and faucet options on the same unit. Weird... Tried contacting the sales person via email regarding the issue, but I have not heard back.

I would recommend this product.

Excellent ...Recommend

by:

Ryan (02-25-2014)Roanoke,VA

Comments:

JUST LOVE IT!!! Decided to get the dual tap, thinking better to have two and not need it then have only one and want more. However, right now just running one keg. My intent was to run a 1/4 slim and a 1/6, but no one in my area supplies 1/4 slims, just pony. Not like that keeps me from enjoying a frosty cold beer right from this tap.

I installed this under my homemade bar, using 2" pvc to connect from cooler to tower...comes out at a nice 32 degrees with cooler set on 33 (no tower fan needed). Love it!! Put it in just in time for superbowl and everyone loved it. Would have liked an external mount option for the CO2 tank with punch out in back to adjust and refill tank easier.

I think for the price this was just outstanding, shipping was super fast and customer service excellent when i had questions or needed something. The regulator was missing from shipment, however was sent express in 2 days to have it up and running for Super Bowl.

I would recommend this company again. I suggest getting dual gauge regulator and magnet strip to monitor beer left in keg. Ran out two days before game day and had no idea it went that fast.

Thanks again BeverageFactory!!

I bought this for use with my home brew. I called Beverage Factory with my questions and they were great help and easy to work with. I upgraded to the stainless tower and higher quality regulator. Both were well worth it.

Shipping was quicker than expected for living across the country.

I only had one issue with a loose nut on the tower, called Beverage Factory and they immediately sent me the tool to tighten it up.

I am a big fan of the digital temp control and can't wait to taste my home brew on draft!

Everything was as I expected. The whole unit is very attractive. If you're starting from scratch remember to order a regulator. I somehow didn't see that as an option. At first It seemed a bit loud, but after it ran for a day, the compressor quieted down and I'm was happy with the it.

I liked it so much, I got two...

by:

Jarek (01-21-2014)Bellingham, WA

Comments:

Yes, I bought 2 of them and they're awesome!

Everything came as expected and except for the unorthodox tower screws, everything looks and pours like a charm. The screws for the tower were not tapered so I had to find a specialty screw shop to get the 16mm M5 Stainless Steel Machine Screws to replace them (a minor detail but they now look flush with the chrome base).

I also upgraded to the Premium Pro Series Commercial Grade Dual Co2 Gauge and got the T180-7 - Twist - 7" BOD (Branding On Demand) Tap Handle (a necessity if you’re going to do U-Brew with multiple kegs at one time). It took me a while to set up a template to fit the margins in the tear-drop like Tap Handle window but now I can quickly customize/print a new label when I change the keg.

All in all, the Kegerators work great and look great. I affectionately call them the ‘twins’… :). They sit in our front living room and they look like they’re part of the furniture. Even my wife likes them.

Money well spent and I would definitely recommend them if you’re looking not just for functionality but also for an appliance to compliment your furniture.

Cheers… :)

My wife wanted me to get a kegerator :) SO after much research I chose the kegco double tap. Since I mainly drink craft beer and my favorite liquor store can get me many types of 5Gal kegs, I went this route to have options on tap. Easy to set up, Bev factory was very helpful when I had a question and called their tech support. So far so good, still getting the thing dialed in with CO2 levels and such but, I think this is a great mid priced option with lots of features and solidly built.

I keep this Kegerator in my man cave, where we watch UFC fights and all other sports.I have used four pony kegs in it so far with no problems. All my friends think it is so cool.I keep my beer at 34 and it is cold and good. The super chiller is awesome and it really works.(I love that feature) This Kegerator will hold any size keg plenty of room,and well built inside.I upgraded to a polished stainless steel tower (beautiful)and a dual gauge C02k, witch tells me how much C02 is in my tank and pressure (I keep mine at 10 pounds) easy to use.I also got a Kegco pump cleaning kit to clean the lines. So easy to use,fantastic! A must to keep your beer fresh.(I clean mine after every two kegs)It comes with a 5 pound aluminum tank and it sure looks good. The only issue I have is its hard to find someone to fill the tank with C02. A welding Supply place will carry 5 pound C02 tanks full but will not fill yours and their tanks are ugly, and yours is beautiful. They want an exchange so I decided to keep mine and buy theirs. The C02 is cheap and lasts a long time, but buying the tank the first time is expensive, I hope to find someone who can fill my tank for a reserve. But If I was to do it again I would delete the tank. If your looking for a kegerator this is the one, you will not be disappointed.

When I had decided to upgrade my kegerator I did a lot of research and price shopping on line. Your company had the best selection and price I could fine.

When I phoned your company I spoke with Erika D'Eugenio. From the moment we connected on the phone I knew I had selected the right company to fill my order.

Erika was knowledgeable helpful and informative. She kept me from making a purchasing mistake and steered me to the correct product.

Once the unit (K309B-2) arrived I set it up with ease. I would highly recommend your business to anyone who asks.

I would shop here again in a heart beat. Erika sold me, and I will be a customer of your products for decades to come.

a good looking kererator...love the s/s front. Plenty of room inside tho my 10# co2 tank won't fit in the metal band (for a 5# tank. Really like the digital readout of the temp. setting..one needs to be careful of the small parts. I nearly threw away one of the spacer-cushions for the feet of the chrome guardrail. it was caught in the foam wrapping of the guardrail. Definitely recommend the perlick taps..real quality here. Overall...a very nice kegerator, one you'll be happy to have...especially when the wife gets her refrigerator back.

Great kegerator

by:

Generik (11-15-2013)Indianapolis, IN

Comments:

I purchased this kegerator to replace a countertop height fridge that I had converted to a kegerator a few years back. After using the Kegco model now for a few weeks, the performance is well beyond what I had used in the past.

First thing to mention is the quick shipping. After placing the order I had the kegerator in 5 days. Installation was very easy and there are easy to understand directions on how to assemble the few things that need to be put together. Total assembly took less than an hour including the time to unbox everything.

I opted for the stainless steel tower to replace a chrome tower I already had and find the insulation is very good and helps minimize foaming on that first pour. The insulation is a foam rubber that wraps around the beer lines fairly tightly reducing the air space in the tower. I have consistently gotten excellent pours from this tower with the Perlick faucets I had already had.

The kegerator itself has nice touch controls right at the top of the front. First time plugging it in I noticed it cooled down to running temperature very quickly. Leaving it on overnight should be more than sufficient time to have it cold enough to handle your first keg. There is plenty of room inside and the shelf for the CO2 tank is nice for getting that out of the way.

All in all, I am very happy with this kegerator. It looks great and works extremely well. It definitely chills the kegs much better than my previous 'homemade' kegerator which results in very good pours with a proper head and not 3/4 glassfuls of foam. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a great kegerator.

I would recommend this product.

I would recommend this product.

The kegerator is by far better than any I have owned. It's a solid build and the components supplied by Beverage Factory are top of the line. For example, when I brought the CO2 tank in to be filled, they commented on how great of a tank it was and how others who had purchased kegerators from other retailers have brought in tanks made in China with leaks and expired tank inspection stamps. The unit was a breeze to assemble and could be done by nearly anyone.

I had a slight issue with my CO2 regulator and called about it. A new regulator was sent out immediately, no questions asked. AMAZING customer service!

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

Great Value! Highly Recommended

- Used in home bar

- Unit: (Pros)
- Overall: This unit is a great value. It's intended as a refrigerator type system, and it delivers on its purpose. It looks great, well designed, great fit and finish and stays at a constant temperature.
- Components: The additional components are of great quality. The lines, tower, couplers, regulator and CO2 tank are all top notch. We like the CO2 tank so much that we requested it be filled instead of replaced at our local welding facility.
- Assembly: We had this unit up and running in about 30 minutes after we filled the CO2 tank and bought the beer. The instructions were very easy to follow.
- Controls: The digital controls on the front of the unit are easily managed and readable. We are very glad that we decided on this feature.
- Performance: This thing consistently pours flawlessly. Once we dialed in the correct pressure with the chosen upgraded regulator (very nice!), we have been very pleased with the pints that we pour.

- Unit: (Cons)
- Drip Tray: The accompanied drip tray is a two-piece plastic unit that functions fine. We would love to have the option for a metal drip tray to be as nice as the rest of the unit.
- CO2 Tank Holder: The clip for the CO2 tank is a "Horseshoe" shaped metal band with small holes on each flared end. This design would be fine if there was a provided way to hold the flared ends somewhat together. My wife and I are using a simple nylon cord with a locking slide. (Think camping chair bag closure)

- Beverage Factory: (Pros)
- Overall: This has been one of the best buying experiences that my wife and I have ever had online or over the phone. Our representative was very knowledgeable. The majorly impressive thing was that when she was stumped by one of our questions, she took the initiative and called us back with an answer that day! From start to finish, Beverage Factory listened to our wants and needs, educated us on the best products and components and has followed up after the sale to make sure everything went smoothly.
- Beverage Factory: (Cons)
- Overall: None to report - this was an awesome experience!!!!

- Recommendation: If you are looking for a double tap unit that works for your home bar, kitchen, man cave or game room, the Kegco K309B-2 ROCKS!!!!! We would recommend upgrading the regulator to the pro unit and the tower/faucets to stainless steel. You will be happy that you did. All-in-all, we are very pleased and will be doing more business with Beverage Factory in the near future.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

BIG! COLD!

This was a big purchase for me. Once I knew I was actually buying a fridge (as opposed to converting one) I decided to go ahead and get one that could fit multiple kegs with two faucets. Might as well right! Currently I have a slim quarter and a sixth installed with a little room to spare. I think I could fit 2 slim quarters as the inside of the door is recessed a little. From the outside it is about the size of a dishwasher.

It will take a few days to cool down completely, but then the ambient tempature inside will match the display. I keep it on 33°F with no problems. You can use deep chill for the first few hours when you first put a keg in. Also, you will be fiddling with the regulator some and opening the door alot makes it harder to get cool.

I installed this unit under my workbench in the garage and mounted the tower to my workbench surface. I used a 6" piece of 2" PVC as a spacer and used and upside down shower drain as a flange to attach to the fridge. Multiple lengths of screws are included. I also had just enough room to put foam insulation down inside the PVC around the beer lines. The tower includes nice rubber insulation as well.

Finally, I find it much easier to pour into a pitcher as opposed to straight into a pint glass. There will be a little foam as the beer in the lines in the tower will warm up just a little. It's not enough to tell a temperature difference, just enough to make some foam. I find it's best to "burp" the faucet twice (open/close quickly), then let it run into the pitcher. From there you can make a perfect pour into your frosty pint glass.

I recently purchased this kegerator, I am thrilled with it! Easy to set up and pouring cold beer. I like my beer REALLY cold, this unit has an additional fan and digital display for accurate temperature. I am glad I was able to purchase a great unit with out having to spend a ton of money. I upgraded the regulator to a double gauge, I am not that close to an air and gas place, I would hate to run out.

Bottom Line:

I would recommend this product.

My friends are jealous!

I've been home brewing for a couple years and i got tired of bottling so I decided to give this kegerator a try. It is awesome! I set it up with a couple home brew kegs and now I can pour a glass at a time and it always comes out ice cold. I've found that I'm brewing more and experimenting with my recipes because I can have two kegs on tap and compare tastes right away. It's perfect for a home brewer like me.
